Done Missing sprites

[Sameow_]

What type of bug are you reporting? Teambuilder

What is the bug?
New Mega Evolutions all have different pokemons' sprites. Notably, Tatsugiri's versions have different versions of Minior, but other Megas with alternate forms do not have similar Pokemon (and Mega Glimmora has a Minior sprite as well as Mega Zeraora anyways). Some also share sprites, such as Heracross and Houndoom sharing G-Max Appletun. This only occurs for their 'box' sprites as far as I am aware. Their other sprites are either correct or just straight-up missing.

Are you able to replicate it? If so, how?
Put any of the new Mega Evolutions onto your team in the Teambuilder. Make sure they're their Mega versions.

Apparently more got hit with this than I thought. It seems to be with alternate forms as a whole and has to do with the Pokedex list, potentially.
Hisuian Arcanine is now Archaludon, whose own sprite is just a missing texture. Hero Palafin got hit, as did some of the older megas, and Castform's alternate forms.
Here's Rotom, too.

This is a known issue - many sprites were accidentally removed. We are working on restoring them.

I just want to know how the hell this happened, what caused so many sprites to get wiped?

Zarel accidentally deleted the Sprites folder, we restored from backup but its a bit out of date so we have to fix the rest manually.
